My short film The Last Post has been accepted for three film festivals so far. They are The Madrid Internatiobal Film Festival where it has been nominated for Best Short Film 2015, Best Producer, and the Jury Award, The Austin Comedy Short Film Festival in Texas where it has been nominated for Best Writing (Original Screenplay) and Best Ensemble Cast, and the Loch Ness Film Festival in (you guessed it) Scotland which is a non-competitive festival.
